This paper evaluates the impact of microcredit granted by the Youth Agropastoral Entrepreneurship Program (PEA-Jeunes) on the income of agricultural activities of young entrepreneurs in Cameroon. A sample of 505 individuals, including 212 beneficiaries and 293 non-beneficiaries, was randomly selected from the directory of youth who applied for microcredit between 2017-2019 in the four intervention regions of the PEA-Jeunes in Cameroon. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics and the Endogeneity Switching Regression (ESR) method. The robustness of the results of the ESR model was assessed using the Propensity Score Matching (PSM) method. The results show that the main factors influencing access to microcredit are marital status, entrepreneurship education, field of education, agricultural experience, and financial status of the individual. Furthermore, the results suggest that microcredit has a positive and significant impact on the income of young entrepreneurs' agricultural activities. This study recommends increased investment in financing youth agricultural activities.
